It is very relevant to Fedora which upstream projects are funded and for
what work, because Fedora does not do very much Upstream work, it is a
downstream from this POV.
Care to clarify that statement as in how is this more relevant to Fedora
as opposed to any other downstreams that package and ship NM and any
other project for that matter.
I appreciate you like systemd-networkd however *that* doesn't matter.
Right now NM is a better technical choice.

Well before you declare NM as "obsolete" you need to prove that it is.
Like is being done with openlmi and cockpit compared to everything that
exist out there.

at the moment Networkd can be classified as "immature", so it can be the
basis for a Fedora Server. Once that situation will change we can
certainly revisit this.
And openlmi and cockpit are considered being mature?
